Thanks - btw, a bit cheaper on Amazon.

Appears to be a Q3 order, or a very tardy Q2....

Ordered mine when I was at Carlisle Ford. It is supposed to be autographed by Donald Farr and said would ship in July possibly. Cost I believe was $30 shipped.

I guess in order to do that you'd have to happen upon the first book of the printing by chance, buy it for regular price, brag about it on a forum, turn around and sell it for more than 3Xs what you paid on EBay, go on to purchase a regular edition of the book, and then mention your saga every chance you get in the previously mentioned forum.

I received the Boss 302 book on Friday from Amazon and only have had a chance to skim it. The whole section on the evolution of the 2012 Boss 302 is fascinating. Lots of material I've never read before. Looking forward to reading it cover to cover.

I got mine a few hours ago...been flipping though it.

Interesting stuff on how the 03/04 Mach 1 was almost the Boss and how the 08/09 Bullitt almost was a Boss too.

Nothing firm on 2013 but he mentions a stripe and color change as being possible. I think he knows the real answer and that the stuff from the special on TV will be fact...70's stripes, new colors, probably little else.

I also was reading about the various prototypes and the nicknames they gave them...like "Vader." "Smoke" sounded interesting, it had a potential side pipe through the rocker that did not make it to production.
